Copenhagen, September 1964: Albert Ayler with Don Cherry, Gary Peacock and Sunny Murray - one of the greatest working bands in the history of this music, and we do not say that lightly. The material also known as Vibrations, including the definitive theme of the entire era, "Ghosts", a melody so simple and so total it functions like a national anthem for free music. Cherry darts and comments, Peacock plays some of the finest bass of the decade, Murray is pure cloud and lightning. Every second of this band's short life on tape matters. Japanese Trio pressing on the Freedom series - flat, silent vinyl, as expected from Japan, and the right way to hear this dense, detailed music.
